SurgicEye Raises “Seven Digit” Series A funding

SurgicEye GmbH, a Munich, Germany-based provider of intra-operative 3D imaging and navigation solutions for a patient tailored surgery, has raised a “seven digit” series A funding from FVW investments for your health and Clusterfonds Innovation of Bayern Kapital.

In the past 12 months, the company, a spin-off from Technische Universität München, turned its innovative concept for intraoperative functional imaging into a CE labeled product.

This was achieved with the support of the seed investment of High-Tech Gründerfonds and Seedfonds Technologie Bayerns of Bayern Kapital.

Along with the financing, SurgicEye installed an advisory board with the entrepreneurs, Dr. Friebe, Robert Grüter, Christian Hieronimi, Prof. Dr. Nassir Navab and Dr. Jörg Peter Ströbel, experts in the field of medical devices, and in particular, in imaging and navigation technologies.

The system is currently in use in the reference centers at Klinikum rechts der Isar in Munich and in Bologna, Italy. The first applications are in breast cancer surgery, as well as melanoma.
